The iconic Tron ride from Shanghai Disneyland will soon be speeding over to Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World.

Tron is a thrilling rollercoaster that sees guests strapped on to a Lightcycle where you will race to speeds of 60mph, making it the fastest of all Disney's attractions.

Located next to Space Mountain in Tomorrowland, the new coaster is all set to become one of the most popular rides at Walt Disney World and will open in time for resort's 50th Anniversary.

Work has been progressing quickly on Tron Lightcycle Run, with the track already complete. Still, with all the incredible effects to be added to the attraction, it might be a while before we can hop aboard and ride.

Expected opening date: 2021
